She comes up with the most gorgeous, out of this world drinks and decorates them to the smallest detail like beautiful, housemade garnishes or her custom straws and glasses. She will give you a party your guests will be talking about for years to come.“

“We are beyond thrilled that we chose The Redding Roadhouse for our wedding! We wanted a non-traditional celebration, and the team here brought that vision to life seamlessly. With 135 guests, we opted out of a sit-down dinner and instead had heavy cocktail hour stations all evening. The flow of the space made it so versatile - guests could sit at a table and enjoy a meal and conversation, hop on the dance floor and grab a corn dog on the way through the bar, or relax at a picnic table with lawn games. Even without assigned seating, there was plenty of room for everyone to enjoy the evening exactly as they wanted.

The venue itself is stunning, and the upstairs bridal suite was perfect for our large wedding party. About 15 of us comfortably got ready there the morning of the wedding, and it set the tone for a relaxed, fun start to the day. Our ceremony on the large lawn was beautiful, with such a picturesque backdrop for our vows. For the reception, we tented the outdoor patio as our dance floor, which kept the energy flowing all night, while the fire pit gave guests a cozy spot to enjoy the music without being in the middle of it.

Dietary needs were handled with so much care. We worked with both the chef and the event coordinator, Kristina, to create delicious vegan options and thoughtful accommodations for guests with more severe allergies. The bartenders were fantastic, keeping the line moving quickly all night and every cocktail was spot on. Our guests were so impressed, and we felt completely confident that everyone was taken care of. No one left hungry!

On the night of the wedding, the event staff was incredible. The space stayed spotless, stations were always full, and the service never skipped a beat. Kristina went above and beyond during planning too, helping us design a unique floor plan, rearranging the restaurant to fit our stations and décor, and even transforming the general store into a candy bar and bakery counter.

We can’t recommend The Roadhouse enough for any private event. Beautiful, flexible, and supported by an amazing team, it was the perfect place to celebrate our wedding and create memories we’ll cherish forever.“

Atmosfera este relaxantă și primitoare, cu o muzică de fundal discretă și un decor modern care îți dă senzația că ești într-un loc special, dar totodată familiar. Wi-Fi-ul este rapid și fiabil, iar mesele sunt bine dispuse, astfel încât să poți lucra confortabil, fie că ai o întâlnire de afaceri sau vrei să te concentrezi pe proiectele tale. Pe scurt, această cafenea combină perfect o cafea excelentă cu un spațiu plăcut și liniștit, ideal pentru a petrece câteva ore productive sau pur și simplu pentru a te relaxa.“

“Just had a great lunch! Nice people, really good food.“

“I’ve been to a lot of New Milford’s restaurants but I have to say the service at The Abbey was exceptional and the food was excellent and reasonably priced. Given how many eateries don’t survive over time; they are the model for a sustaining and thriving food service business. My wife had the Chicken Cordon Bleu, and I had the Chicken Caesar salad. Both were excellent and the portion size and portion per price was very good. Even the water tasted excellent. If I had one complaint it would be that the noise level was a little high, but it is a pub style restaurant where you can watch a game.“

“Delicious food and great service. The owners have created a wonderful restaurant. Sherwin and his partner chef Lasath are doing a great job! A much needed edition to the community!“

“We hosted my daughter‘s bridal shower at J Law and it was everything we hoped for. Clara, Megan, and the entire team were attentive, kind, and incredibly helpful throughout the day. The private event space was ideal, spacious, welcoming, and flexible enough for us to personalize with our own decor. The food was delicious. The service was top-notch and the atmosphere made everyone feel at home. I wouldn’t hesitate to return for another celebration. Thank you, Clara and the J Law team for helping us create such a memorable day!“

“Food was delicious! Drinks were very expensive. C&C sour was $14.95..small glass with lots of ice!!“

“Every dish we order is off the chart delicious! Lovely service and amazing frozen margaritas!! Food is always fresh!“

“We had my daughter’s bridal shower at Monroe Social back in June. I cannot say enough good things about our experience. Constantin did an amazing job helping me with the planning details. Dave was absolutely amazing the day of the brunch…from set-up until the end! He handled all of our requests, with a big smile on his face to boot! The brunch was delicious. What a great venue for any celebration! Thank you!“

“The food and cocktails are great, and the hospitality is even better. They know the service industry! Best happy hour in Brookfield. Wish I had discovered this place sooner.“

“Quite good food and service. Very well executed on basic fare that left me delightfully surprised. The atmosphere lacks polish but is clean and friendly. It’s a place that stands on food and reputation, so if you want a reliable bite and a beer, I would recommend.“

“beautiful place! the food was excellent and great service“

“The Rathskeller is a comfortable neighborhood restaurant with good food. The new owners, Kate and Nicole, work hard to make it a great place!“

“Such a great place to hang out and have some good brews! 🍻“

“Manager very nice. Staff hard workers. Nice atmosphere“

“The food is the star here. We started with the nachos - we added chicken and guacamole - and they were fantastic. My husband got the salmon with honey Dijon (very good) and I got the barrel cut filet mignon Oscar style (one of the best steaks I’ve ever had). We also got the Big E baked potato and creamed spinach, both phenomenal. The waitress was pretty cold and the rustic dining room was wide open and very noisy.“

“Bigger on the inside than it looks. They have a good size performance stage, a lot of pool/billiard tables, 2 dart boards, a couple of arcade machines, and a bar with a big variety of bottled beers, wine, and liquors. Pizza and hot dogs are offered for a while.“

“3rd. Time at Mercato. Food is good. Problem is the music! If you want to eat and relax, forget it! If you are 15 and like loud disco type music, this is your place. They need some relaxing jazz, Opera, Sinatra etc. However picked the music for an Italian Restaurand, knows nothing about a relaxing atmosphere!!!!“

“We had a party of 7 and they handled it seamlessly.

They treated the kids like gold.

I had the sizzlin' chicken, steak, and shrimp fajitas w/the Southwest eggrolls...DELICIOUS.

Good coffee too.“
